I promised a ht to Abbi when she got her ticket. Now I have to do something for Kendra.
The local club has agreed to help subsidize new radios to all the techs that passed this last time. There were 19 kids that signed up stating they wanted a radio. Our club meeting this past week voted to pitch in a third of the cost with another third coming from local businesses and then the kids would come up with the last third. 10 members donated the third for the club on the spot! We are hoping that by helping the kids get a radio they will stay interested in the hobby.
We are trying to get enough kids involved to start a weekly kids net. Hope it works out!!
Will keep you updated.
